Apache UIMA Annotator Package Version 2.3.0 README
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Apache UIMA annotator package is an add-on package for the base UIMA release.
The add-on package contains annotator components developed for Apache UIMA. The
add-on package fits the Apache UIMA directory structure and adds a directory
called "addons/annotator" that contains the following annotator components:
- DictionaryAnnotator
- RegularExpressionAnnotator
- Tagger
- WhitespaceTokenizer
- Bean Scripting Framework (BSF) BSFAnnotator
- ConceptMapper
- ConfigurableFeatureExtractor
- Lucas - an interface to using UIMA with Lucene
- OpenCalaisAnnotator - an sample annotator using the OpenCalais Service
- SnowballAnnotator - an annotator making use of the snowball stemmers
- TikaAnnotator - an annotator using the Tika project text extractors
Additionally the package contains some components to package annotators
and for accessing annotators as simple REST service. These are:
- PearPackagingAntTask
- SimpleServer
Finally, there is an addon to the base UIMA:
- FsVariables
Each component has a separate LICENSE and NOTICE files; some also
have Readme and other documentation (in docs/). Documentation
is also available on the UIMA website, in the Sandbox area.
Disclaimer
-----------
Apache UIMA is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software
Foundation (ASF). Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects
until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications,
and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with
other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily
a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does
indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
